### Initiative description

Original AI Security Whitepaper (https://github.com/cncf/toc/issues/1718) has been split into 3 parts as per suggestion of TOC and https://github.com/cncf/toc/issues/1718 is abandoned because it was a document having 50+ pages.

Three split docs issues are:
https://github.com/cncf/toc/issues/1939 [Encryption Landscape]
https://github.com/cncf/toc/issues/1940 [Model and Data Security]
https://github.com/cncf/toc/issues/1942 [AI Agents]

This part covers Cloud Native AI Security and issues related to AI Agents. It covers what could go wrong with AI Agents in distributed cloud native environment, including MCP, A2A architecture, and registrations.

### Deliverable(s) or exit criteria

Document is ready and reviewed by TOC Subproject AI folks, given original AI security paper was ready and already submitted to TOC. As per advice of TOC original paper has been split into smaller docs having 10-12 pages. This part deals with AI Agents and associated security issues.
This is ready to be taken by TOC.
